Education / Boom dossier RaiTre acclaim for 'The School failed'
Teachers applaud investigation: revealed truth denied by Gelmini
Rome, February 16 (AP) - It is causing a chain reaction-service investigation into the problems that affect the world of education, particularly public, broadcast Sunday night on RaiTre within the program 'Presadiretta': In the last hours of the teachers and the comments of all school stakeholders, but also of parents and industry associations, have flooded the forum, newspapers, blogs and in general all sites, including those institutions that have to do with the education of students.
reactions prevailing in the dossier, titled "School failure and edited by journalist Richard Iacona, were characterized by anger and concern among most active in developing the 'tam tam' movements were precarious, whose members represent the first and main target of the cuts (as further illustrated by the service) planned by the government to streamline costs. Coordination precarious national school, which owns a dozen movements, particularly appreciated the topics discussed Sunday night, enough to send a letter to the editor of 'Presadiretta'.
"Finally a program - have written to the temporary - that shows the truth desperately denied by the minister Gelmini: schools that are literally in pieces, chairs and without heating, classes 'chicken' in which failure to respect the safety laws, students distributed in classes because state public schools have no money to pay for substitutes, temporary workers without jobs, parents of disabled students who do not know how to protect the right to education of their children, headteachers have to ask for contributions for families to buy pens and chalks, lack of suitable space for physical activity. "According to the coordination
this reality would be" inconsistent with the decay of public schools, to which the government denies funding and personnel, there are private schools that receive funding from the richer regions. Thank you for finally pierced the wall of silence that many mass media, well-trained by the powers that be, have given school subject, mentioned only for marginal issues such as the use of the apron or the return of voting behavior. "
Presadiretta RaiTre like the casual and the movement of the RP technique Scuola.it
The Forum Precarious officially thanked the transmission of Riccardo Iacona. But There are also those who expressed strong reservations, as the president AGESCI speaking explicitly of "bleak picture and not true."
The episode of the transmission of Richard Iacona (Presadiretta) aired on Sunday night has proved, as expected, acclaim in the line anti-Gelmini.
The forums are countless movements of interventions for parents and teachers who declare their enthusiasm for the services you have shown cutting Chairs, the precarious plight of the southern, the problems of education increasingly empty coffers, the efficiency (actual or constructive) of private schools and the incredible state of structural deterioration of many schools in the south.
Some even talk of a "masterpiece of investigative journalism" and announces that he will also write to editors of other television programs to ask them to take example from Iacona. The Precarious
Forum has even approved the text of a letter of thanks be sent to the drafting of Presadiretta.
But there is also someone who is there and speaks of "bleak picture and not true." As Maria Grazia Colombo, President AGESCI (Parents Association Catholic schools).
"The service - said the president - has provided a bleak and untrue of the school throughout the school, both state and equality. As a parent I rebel to exploitation so severe that show a false information and biased.
" In this way - adds Colombo - it only encourages more cynical skepticism that does not consider any possible improvement. The emphasis in these times to want to oppose the so-called public school (meaning only the state) to equal, denying the public function of quest ' Last recognized by a state law, Italian law 62/2000 desired by the then Minister Berlinguer.
And there right in the middle attacks on the transmission: "I said some things were false and were advanced harsh judgments on the inability of welcome by the public schools and equal people with disabilities as well as the non-EU students." No comments
comes instead from Viale Trastevere, which on Monday was instead issued a statement saying that "the facts of Milan confirm the need for policies that pursue true integration."
"The introduction of a ceiling of 30% in the presence of immigrant students in each class - emphasizes the Minister - is a positive measure that shows the government's commitment in this direction. Sorry found that, on this occasion, the left has only manipulate move forward without any convincing proposal to govern these phenomena. "

From Aetna Net Consortium February 15, 2010
Looking good is understood that, even in relation to school, the right-wing government has a different worldview than the left, finally putting the corner who believes that deep down they are all equal. We do not feel, however, to make political judgments, but what in the television program Rai3 Presadiretta, was released, gives an idea of \u200b\u200bwhat this executive was the school.
Leaving aside the drama of documented temporary workers, with suitcases and strollers around the various superintendencies northern Italy, it hits the net difference between the public and private schools of the Lombardy Region of Formigoni (PDL) in the model, as will be recalled, the minister Gelmini did reference a few days ago: There is an export model the rest of Lombardy in Italy. What is has been explained, give vouchers to families, not even the ISEE presentation and three times more substantial if you choose the private, where they want to spend a bit 'as it happens in health care. And as the health of the private schools do not have all the obligations of the public, including the acceptance of disabled children, the inclusion of any applicant and also the recruitment of teachers. The so-called freedom of choice of education is expressed in this fact, which otherwise would have free choice?
Meanwhile, teachers are selected that correspond to the cultural project that demanded by the users of reference, without rankings and scores, but only on the basis of the specific ideological direction of the school and then with direct procurement as the Eagle, and even the inscriptions respond to this logic, and because it may also refuse, having no bond, and because an observant Muslim never put the child in a Catholic school and vice versa. But there well as a pre-selection in relation to the census, so the impression you get is to implement the private, as was done with the clinics, and leave the rest to the public, but which are not given funding or support , as seen in the transmission (the Boat el'Agrario of Messina) and as we read in the newspapers every day. Excellence is assured to those who can afford it and sufficiency, but also mediocrity, the public education where it collects the mass and where the costs of operation must, however, provide a training offer egalitarian, diverse, widespread and timely, but no money.
unfair competition, was told to plug direct, but which is regularly accepted as "private good" and because the ruling class begin to select the school already, depressing the equal opportunity and social equality are guaranteed by the Constitution instead. The obvious surprise was rocked by comparison with the health and because it is proving a business for some categories of doctors and entrepreneurs, nothing strange that the same goal you want to reach the school. A sort of company where profits to be made but where it is also guaranteed a great service for those who have money only and only in certain categories, leaving the audience to fending as best. Emblematic was the declaration of the mother did not put even the slightest doubt about the inclusion of the daughter in private school, no problem. Who knows what may have thought that precarious transferred from Sicily to Turin, forced to leave his wife and son? PASQUALE ALMIRANTE Monday, February 15, 2010
Children without a future: the death of public school Riccardo Iacona
Precari-UNEMPLOYMENT, INSTITUTIONS TO COLD WEATHER "PIENINO": THE LAST INVESTIGATION "live" from "the daily"
"There will be no cuts to the school. About the school too much divorce with reality. Messages are coming from the left absolutely false and unnecessary alarm "- this Silvio Berlusconi had said in October 2008. It is not true. And everyone will look tonight "The school failed" if they can be accountable. Beginning with the most dramatic cut, that of job: do you remember them the temporary school on the roofs of superintendencies of Italy? Fell from the roofs and do not work this year. And the thousands. Many concentrated in the south. We have followed in Messina, for example, when the chairs were assigned: less than half of last year. And it took police and police to curb the rage of unemployed remained precarious. We have followed the crowd and school boards of cities and provinces of the north: as once did the workers who came to work in factories, they come with the bags from inside the offices, homeless, without a family network, hoping to take a temporary medium long with a pitiful wage. To the administrator of Milan meet a Sicilian couple, the wife has just taken a year and so substitute for one year will share the children: the smaller one will come to live in Milan with her mother, the larger one will remain in Sicily with his father. Thousands of stories like these, people who suddenly found herself without a job, no income, no role. And all this in the midst of a terrible economic crisis. We then documented the gaps that these people have left school and found that their absence can be seen, and how if you see: lack of support for teachers, shortage of substitutes, lack of teachers. And no money. The Ministry of Education must, indeed, to each school one billion euro for normal operation. The result is that the Italian public is dying to the point that there is no extra activities, not involving a request for a contribution of families with the money of the Italian public prosecutor because the school can not even buy the markers. We were with our cameras close to the principals that do somersaults to try to ensure the service adequate. And we also saw that despite those all efforts do not make it: schools that lack even the classes and the kids spend all their time to move from classroom to classroom, schools without heat and without laboratories, without gyms, without no technical materials and teachers. We shot the scenes of elementary school children while they are parked between a class and the other because there is money to call the deputies and even the taboo of full-time - you remember the statements of the minister: "The families need not worry because do not touch the whole time "- has been violated. Every year it becomes increasingly difficult for schools to provide this, and it becomes time "pienino" and so more and smaller for hours and activities offered, and less rich. Then there are private schools and private schools to charge: Lombardy in the last ten years are also funded with public money because of good school. And schools are wonderful. There we see a lot tonight, between Milan and its province. You will see how many things you could do, how many recreational activities and sport, you will see perfectly bilingual elementary school children and young people of Leo XIII, already addressed to the Milan Polytechnic or at the Catholic University. And touch as many chances in the future unless we are giving to the children of public school.
While in other states more "civilized"
